I think that depends on what you are looking for. I don't think IPods will work for me until they can offer a better alternative to a 8-hr lithium battery. Who wants to baby sit their power supply all of the time.

Honestly, that's not a problem. The iPod comes with a docking station. All you have to do is put the iPod in the docking station at night and each morning, you have a full charge that will easily get you through the entire day (unless listening to an iPod is all you do). I listen to my iPod extensively - hours a day - and I haven't once run out of charge. Just a total non-issue.

But I mostly use mine while I am away from home. Maybe I need two, one for everyday and one for away.
